re: iMode?

How is it hard to use? If you don't use the Japanese app, you will get corruption when you receive MMS mail from other Japanese users who used templates or other features not handled properly by the standard android app.

I updated mine already, inside Japan, but over WiFi, with Mobile Data off. I don't think it needs a Docomo SIM. My Xperia Acro HD also updated with an eMobile SIM just fine.

Batter Power Management in Docomo SO-02E

Does anyone notice that the Tablet Z from Docomo lacks on the following feature :

My Power Management is different from the original Sony Tablet Z I was wondering if it is because is a docomo version (I have the latest firmware)

You should use "CommuniCase"

This one is way quicker and it can also recieve other mails like Gmail:)

Here is how I rooted my SO-02E on the latest 4.2.2 OTA update.

Using flashtool I flashed my phone back to version .343 to get rid of CWM I had installed.

I used Doomlord Easy rooting toolkit v17 (here on XDA) to get Root access.

In SU application, I disabled root.

I run the OTA update to 4.2.2

in SU application I enabled root.

Hope it helps owners of Japanese Xperia Z.

Hello everyone, I'm new user for so-02e.. & I'm currently using the official 4.3 journalist & commercial firmware.. If i'm rollback to 4.2.2 docomo firmware & wanted to root it without unlock the bootloader.. I only have to use the doomlord toolkit? Or is there another way to root it?
[Xperia Z General] juandu89:
Why are you trying to rollback? Are you having problems with the 4.3 journalist & commercial firmware? I also have a so-02e but when I upgraded to 4.3 journalist & commercial firmware my phone shows me up a message saying that there is no simcard. Which method do you use for upgrade to 4.3 ?
[Xperia Z General] renzu:
i'm rolling back to 4.2.2 docomo version because there isn't root method without unlock the bootloader for 4.3 at the time being :), & yes i found a problem using the journalist & commercial firmware, i can't use the NFC, it won't tick the list.

I'm using the normal flash tools (not the xperia flash tools), probably you should flash it again or try other 4.3 official firmware on other region in this forum like singapore, greece, portugal etc, probably more stable than the journalist version.
[Xperia Z General] roanmy:
I have a question regarding this rom.

If I have the language set to English in the international version, kanji renders as the Chinese version, does the same happen with the SO-02E firmware?

Will flashing SO-02E firmware ock my phone to docomo?
[Xperia Z General] renzu:
Does everyone here using the "R" signal?

It's a bit annoying not knowing whether the signal is Edge/HSPA/LTE..

How can i replace this signal with the normal signal sign?
[Xperia Z General] joeminati:
I have a question. Just got a Docomo Xperia Z and was reading reports of the screen digitizer glass just breaking for no reason inside people's pockets. Any setups (particular cases, screen protectors, ect) people can recommend to prevent this?

Also.... I am aware that the bootloader is locked and I am familiar with flashing roms. So there is zero chance that I can install custom roms?
[Xperia Z General] ahmedyar91:
Hey Jeominati..

You Can Install All Stock Based Custom Roms
[Xperia Z General] Petronius_:
Hello,

I just updated to 4.4.2 ROOT using one of the unbranded international ROM.

By doing so you will lose Felica and the Earthquake warnings.

Here is how I did it:

You need to have a rooted SO-02E

Then install XZ Dual recovery

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2261606

Then update to 4.4.2 pre-Rooted

http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z/development/stock-rom-kitkat-ncb-pre-rooted-recovery-t2759143

Then you have to update your APN if you are in Japan on Docomo like me:

You are likely on spmode

http://www.japanmobiletech.com/2011/04/docomo-access-point-names-apn.html

Finally, do not forget to activate 4G on your phone.

It works all good on mine.
[Xperia Z General] stryker.jp:
is spmode receiving mails automatically for you?

it stopped working after i upgraded to 4.4.2 - i did some search and it seems root access is needed to get it working again. and its so troublesome to root...
[Xperia Z General] Petronius_:
I have given up on spmode mail a long time ago so I cannot answer your question.

If you followed my method you should be rooted though.
[Xperia Z General] ninjy:
Is Docomo scheduled to update the SO-02E to 4.4 ?
[Xperia Z General] stryker.jp:
hi Petronius, if you dont use sp-mode how do you use your docomo mail?

or you dont use docomo mail at all? :cyclops:
[Xperia Z General] Petronius_:
Exactly, no Docomo mail anymore.
[Xperia Z General] renzu:
yes, they are planning to update so-02E in here... https://www.nttdocomo.co.jp/smt/info/notice/page/140626_00_m.html

but they didn't inform about the exact date :crying:

Btw does anyone using the firmware 4.4 international?? Is it save & what about the NFC icon, can it be tick, because in the 4.3, I can't use the NFC, it won't tick.

Thank you

How to use another sim card with Xperia Z SO-02E?

Hi, I recently became an owner of a Docomo Xperia Z that my Japanese friend forgot during her homestay in the U.S. She now has a new phone and she told me to do whatever I wanted with the phone, and I decided to give it to my cousin who's really into all things Japanese.

The version is 4.2.2 and build number is 10.3.1.B.1.1, but it is locked to the Docomo service provider.

Does anyone know any loop-hole or method to bypass this lock on sim cards so my cousin can use a pre-paid plan? I don't care if I enter the "dark side" of anything or voiding any warranties as my two choices are giving this as a viable phone or tossing it in the (electronics) recycling bin.

Thank you very much,

St3cky
[Xperia Z General] Petronius_:
Docomo unlocks it for $30 but it is obviously not an option for you.

I would check if any website sells unlock codes. It usually also costs around $30

I sim-unlocked my LG from docomo this way a couple of years ago.

Keep in mind that Japanese Xperia Z have a locked bootloader and that this cannot be changed so you'll be limited to official ROMs.

Please, do not throw it away! Worst case scenario there are plenty of people here in Japan who would be happy to use it and pay for the shipping fees.
[Xperia Z General] St3cky:
Are there any sites where I can sell a phone to a Japanese target audience? And if I were to do so, would I still have to unlock the phone? Most unlock sites seem to be only tailored to U.S. phones, rather than international/Japanese ones.

Thank you very much,

St3cky
[Xperia Z General] Petronius_:
Yahoo auction is the major one in Japan but you would have to navigate through Japanese pages and set an announce in Japanese.

If no one can help you with that your second best shot is Craigslist Tokyo. More limited audience but still worth trying.

Problem rooting my DoCoMo Sony Xperia Z1 SO-02E

My device is running Android 4.4.2 and it has build number 10.5.1B.0.68. I have tried in several way to root it because I just need to increase the volume of the headphone output which is awfully low. I need to install a software in order to increase the volume and de device needs to be rooted first. It just won't root. Always fail at half process. I also used Kingo but at 40% gave me a failed message. Does anyone know how to root this phone? Is it locked from rooting? Can it be done?

What if the One S gets it? If so porting sense 5 won't be nearly as hard.
[HTC Sensation] huy_lonewolf:
Since we haven't managed to port Sense 4 JB from the One S, I am fairly certain that Sense 5 is most likely not possible on our Sensation. Based on my experience, we can only port ROMs from devices with similar specifications (such as One S and Sensation), and in fact, most of the Sense 4 ROMs on this forum are from the One S. Given the huge differences between the new HTC One and Sensation (1080p screen versus qHD, Snapdragon 600 vs S3, etc...), the amount of effort required to create a port is simply too much, assuming that we can have all the required libraries, drivers to start with. Even the One X+ may not get Sense 5, given HTC's poor track record of updating devices.
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
So,

I'm reaching out to smarter people then I.

Now that we got S-Off anybody have ideas on how to fix the nfc for wallet or Isis? Also get hulu plus working?

I know a majority of wallet/isis is getting the secure SIM, but I know Isis has a root check. How can we trick it?

Hulu plus seems to not like unlocked devices due to DRM keys being removed. Can we relock and still keep root now? Or how to we trick this app? Its been done on other sense devices.
[HTC Droid DNA] ShadowDna:
I would totally love this to happen
[HTC Droid DNA] ThatFool:
From what I understand s-off basically makes it easier to flash complete packages like boot.img and ROMs together
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
Right but it also allows you to do things like relock and keep root.

I'm not one of the people who think s-off is a magic pill and will bring aosp, just curious if anyone has given the apps any thought.
[HTC Droid DNA] [TSON]:
Word on the street is we don't have a secure element, and Wallet needs one... so if that's true, it won't happen no matter what we unlock.
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
I know we can get a secure element sim
[HTC Droid DNA] Jrocker23:
If you want HULU Plus to work, just email the devs at mobilesupport@hulu.com send them a pic of the error if you can then they will ask you to try some things and if that doesnt work, just advise them and the will send you a questionaire to fill out, Just tell them its stock and not rooted.

I emailed them and went back and forth with a tech to find the issue and now it works fine
[HTC Droid DNA] jasoraso:
I've got a secure element sim, but unfortunately, Google Wallet doesn't seem to look for a secure element on the sim :(

And even if it did, I think only VZW has the key to the secure element. So Google Wallet stays locked out. Since the sim is provided by VZW, they can argue that they don't need to provide the key to 3rd parties, keeping the monopoly to themselves.
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
Any chance we can trick isis' root check? I'd be Ok using isis at this point
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
So jrocker are you unlocked? Rooted? S-off? And what rom?
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
Ok I did a the modification to actually lock the bootloader.

I actually did a fastboot oem lock. That gave me relock, I then flashed the mod found on the original development dna forum and got locked.

Huluplus works fine now
[HTC Droid DNA] jasoraso:
I tried doing that today. Isis gives me an error about the wrong device. See my thread I just started in the app forum.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jrocker23:
Rooted, s-off and on stock rom and kernel with newest update
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
I found if I relock after I got S-off Huluplus works
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Yea, I think it has to do with drm keys or something like that. Which you don't have when you are unlocked.
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
Yeah.

I will say the new hatka 3.0.1 does not work though with Huluplus
[HTC Droid DNA] Jrocker23:
If you want hulu to work, just email them, give them the answers they ask for, just don't tell them you are rooted. I'm s-off & all unlocked and it works for me...
[HTC Droid DNA] 18th.abn:
Has anybody tried using the secure NFC libs from a evo lte in place of the DNA NFC libs. That along with a build.prop might get wallet up and running for you guys
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
There isn't a secure element in the dna. So that won't work.
[HTC Droid DNA] 18th.abn:
I did it on the Evita one x which doesn't either and got it past the insecure element error.

Copy pasting the libs will cause force closing, but if you replace the libs in whatever ROM you use and flash them it works perfectly. Then its just a matter of editing build.prop or the apk to actually get it to register the account.

So far battery has been on par with the last update, which means there is still a drain. One thing I have noticed into do a few battery pulls or restarts every time you update so I did my second and it was funny, my battery life pre restart was 95 and post start up was 97. Right now it's at 96. So I'll give it a few days before I report back on battery life. But performance wise is just great. Same as before. Snappy and good.
[Galaxy Note II General] Dpk1:
Oh! ok.. i thought my battery was going crazy coz my note2 showed battery at 77% pre & 79% post restart :confused:. I'm on latest stock XXDMB2 (India) rom.

Another funny thing i have discovered is that if i charge the phone for a prolonged duration (i.e continue charging for about an hour after the battery is 100%) then the battery life improves significantly. It gives me as good battery backup as it was on 4.1.1. Charged it full 1 day 17 hrs back and with very light use 78% battery still remaining :victory:. With same settings and similar use it would otherwise be less than 68% remaining. Checked this twice and found the battery backup to be good if i charge it for some time beyond 100% charge.

On last install with stock kernel i can't install backtrack for example because say loop not supported...then i must get custom kernel for that...now i install backtrack again with stock kernel.

Like i say it's rooted but system status remain as Normal...not like last time when it say Modified...

I see new apps like readers hubs and video hub...but strange they say that detected that the phone is rooted and stop working...strange for a app to do that...and update search is working ok because the system is Normal.

[Galaxy Note II General] VAKZ23:
Kies or OTA update

I've been waiting for 4.1.2 update for my device (GT-N7100) cause I was really looking forward to improvements on performance, and yesterday, sammobile tweeted that KSA (JED) region had rolled the update where I buy my unit (Im currently on Philippines) so I quickly started Kies for the update (Im not really used to tweak my device, I just like the way it used to be), but upon browsing the net, majority of people update their phones thu OTA, and not Kies,

I started yesterday 10am and then when I woke up Kies said my device cannot be recognized or something, but when I tried to update through wifi on my phone it displays (Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in whick they request it. Try again) What does this mean? sorry I'm really new to this, my 2nd android device from my X10 2.3 GB, No idea on rooting or flashing or custom roms, just wanted to update my unit haha..

Do I need to wait for my device to be next in line on firmware OTA rollout? Its pain in the "A" waiting for half a day on kies update and getting none..

thanks in advance,
[Galaxy Note II General] jesuguru:
It means to manage server traffic, Samsung queues up users requesting OTA updates. Keep trying every couple hours, you'll likely get through within a day or two.

If not, or you can't wait, your options are 1) reinstall KIES and see if it starts working again, 2) flash the update directly if you have ODIN (flashing stock ROM with stock recovery won't void warranty or change status). Most recent stock roms available for your regions on sammobile or samsung-updates[dot]com.

I'll try both haha

thanks for that.. I guess I'll try both. who comes first to update my phone wins haha. OTA vs Kies

Got 4.1.2 XXDMB2 through official OTA update process and can only say as almost everybody else: battery life is much less than before. Especially the Google Maps service eats about 18% of the battery, no matter if GPS is on or off or if I kill the service or not. I haven't got any problems with the Media Scanner though as some others reported.

I'm just downloading DMB4 (Spain), am a bit surprised by the sheer size of 1GB though.
